Team-BHP - The sad state of Journalist YouTubers (Pradeep on Wheels)

This show's the very sad state of so-called "Journalist YouTubers" who went to the under-construction Ola Electric factory site and trespassed on the Ola Property and started crying wolf when they were handled heavy-handedly. Being full-grown adults they should know any private property is off-limits no matter if there is a No-Trespassing board or not. Now with their videos going viral these poor souls probably will lose their livelihood in this pandemic situation. Having friends in the construction industry I know they are always under the harsh sun, or in the rain or in the cold doing their work. And with high profile constructions like these now they will also have to deal with a lot of ****** YouTuber crowd too. And knowing what they go through every day, you can not get mad at how they dealt with this ****** YouTuber.

And listen to the entitlement in his voice. He will cancel his booking and ask his friends and family to cancel their booking too. Why? Just because you felt entitled to be on private property, which is also an active construction site without proper authorizations and got shooed away by workers who used some strong language? I guess Ola is better off without an entitled customer like you and anyone associated with you. God forbid that you show up to cause trouble on behalf of the people associated with you.

And this guy knows that he is in the wrong. Because he has comments turned off on this video. He knows people will see through his drama and shred him into nothing in the comments. And I bet he will delete or hide this video within the next couple of days. So I am downloading this video and keep it safe until he apologizes to Ola Electric and to those employees in the video and makes sure that they do not lose their jobs.

I dont have decent words for such entitled people who still try to act as if they have all the rights. He says in the video that he would post his picture and he doesnt have a problem, but doesnt have common sense that he cant post someones pictures on social media without permission. I appreciate that employee who stood up and showed these guys their real place. Look at how this guy cries out of desperacy. Please delete that link to video so that he doesnt get more publicity. :Frustrati

YouTube is full of such people, finding correct/helpful videos become difficult due to such kind. They bombard the video with incorrect keywords and titles just to get views.

I believe posting such videos here, only gives them more views and reach, eventually benefitting them.

Can we do something about this like, disabling video link or similar, atleast on team-bhp?

If this person's intent was to portray Ola in bad light, then he's successful. In my opinion, instead of using bad words, the Ola employees should have asked him politely to leave their premises and should have called the Police. Using bad words even if one is right is wrong. Being a corporate entity, Ola should know better about anger management and dealing with difficult situations in a diplomatic way.

Unwelcomed guests need to be treated similarly, be it your home or office. You will never know who is visiting you with what authority or identification proof and purpose.

I think the only action that Ola team missed to take here was to get the police and have these idiots behind the bar at least for a night and I am sure better sense would have prevailed and he would have learnt a lesson for the rest of his life. He should thank his stars that he could get out of the situation with some verbal abuse.

On a similar point, he seems confused if he is visiting the facility as an auto journalist or as a customer. On the other hand, he seems to have already understood the negative mood of his viewers and hence already turned off the comments section.

I am sure, this genius' journalist career has ended even before it began. And for the budding youtubers, better learn from such jokers mistakes.

I think I got a little annoyed when i heard him call himself 'media people' or 'media journalist'.

And the opening scene itself, he went there to create positive content/ media for Ola, to put on his channel for August 15th (when Ola launched their electric scooter). He went there to create content for his YouTube channel and highly likely not for creating a positive impression for Ola. Nonsense!

These kind of people create annoyance more than anything, what with there entitlement and threats of cancelling 5 bikes?! And also asking others to cancel it because, as he himself said, largely everyone is good but 1 or 2 are bad, so cancel orders.

Joker!

His integrity and intent was immediately clear to me the moment I saw the comments turned off. If this wouldn't have happened, the video might have had a different click bait title to the tune of "First preview of OLA EV Mega factory, 1st YouTuber to visit on EV scooter launch day". Or something more deceptive than that. lol:

I hope Ola Electric can take this opportunity to also impart some soft skills DOs & DON'Ts for their employees and contractors, along with inputs how handle such jerks, so such situations of using unpleasant words can be avoided and they can keep their calm and do their work.

First of all, this is no personal attack. But people who are expecting any kind of decency from the construction workers at the Ola factory site, I would like them to ask to try standing in the harsh sun or in the rain or in cold nights day in day out and then think about dealing with these kinds of bafoons on a regular basis. Because that is exactly what happens day in and day out. And I know this having a construction business in the family and being at various construction sites for as long as I can remember. I would also like to add that, security and safety is everyone's responsibility when you are at an active construction site. So even though there are dedicated security personal at a site, you still can be intercepted by any employee or personal on-site if you do not have the authorization to be there. Because tools of large scale construction are as big, as expensive and as dangerous as they come.

Most of the influencer junta are just fame mongers who blabber random stuff on random topics to be honest. Most of them are popular because of the spike in video content consumption, and the fact that people just simply spent much more time of socials than they spent in the past..

Influencers is a self invented term to help personal motives, with most people knowing nothing about anything. The thing is, some of them are popular (most of those also don’t know anything), leading a cycle of mee-too generation.

Anyway, the less said the better. I did promise (to set) to not rant when I observe foolish stuff that doesn’t affect me!

The current of so called “Influencers” are Influencing especially the young minds in the wrong way. People who are aware of the recent issue that happened with the “EBull jet youtuber brothers” in Kerala will understand what I am trying to say. Not all of you tubers are bad but there are some who tarnish the name of that entire clan.
I hope Ola goes legal on this.
